Complacent started with a drum kit.
I built the groove from scratch while @tash_sings was in the lab with me — no loop packs, no pre-made ideas. Just instinct and feel.
That’s the part people don’t always see — the genius is in how @tash_sings hears a pocket and builds a world on top of it.
Once the rhythm had weight, she picked up the guitar and found those chords.
Then the melody came.
Then the lyric.
All hers.
The drums are the spine of this record.
@tash_sings ’ chords, melody, and lyric gave it its soul.
Produced and arranged by yours truly.

Building the vocal blueprint for @rnbjayr ’s upcoming song ‘Friends’. Arranging, stacking, refining—this is the science behind the sound. Shoutout to my boi @lileddie who absolutely killed the top line on this tune.

Producing and arranging guitar is a science! Here is more BTS footage from @tash_sings next release “Trade Places” with my brother the magical & legendary @iamerickwalls on guitars. Always my job to bring the best out of everyone on a record! Attention to detail at another level! #producerdiaries #guitar #electricguitar #tash #tashmagicisreal
